All I Want for Christmas.... A ZAANHA Scarf

Monday, December 12, 2011

Wendy Summer, the twin sister of a friend of mine is the founder and owner of ZAANHA, featuring handcrafted fine embroidery accessories and home decor. Summer's artisan driven business was established in 2006 following her volunteering with the Business Council for Peace. Her focus of mentoring Afghanistan women and their growing businesses exposed Summer to traditional central Asian crafts & wares of highly skilled weavers and designers and their use of fine materials -- silk, cashmere, and wool. Her company's tag line "ZAANHA, Glamour. For Good." rings true with proceeds from Summer's sales going towards her goal of educating Afghan children.
